We'd walk up and down the Concho River
We'd find a soft place to watch the sun go down
So was it me or was it what I could not give you

She left me shattered, my life scattered all around

Chorus:


She said time would heal my broken heart
and I'd find a true companion for my soul

You know she was right, we were wrong
Nothing more than a pretty song
About a boy who loved a girl

In San Angelo

Repeat Intro


When I'd close my eyes, I could hear her singing
In the chapel where she said we'd wed someday

It rattled me so to hear them old church bells ringing
Knowing well enough we'd never love that way


Repeat Chorus

Looking back it was a blessing she broke my heart in two

But if I had never lost her, baby I'd have never found you

Repeat Chorus


About a boy who once loved a girl in San Angelo
